West Coast Awnings of Clearwater

Take the family out on an island adventure when you venture out to Caladesi Island State Park. This is one of the few remaining completely natural islands off Florida's Gulf Coast. The whole family can enjoy swimming, sunbathing and fishing at this outdoor attraction. Fish from the surf or from your boat. There is a three mile trail through the island's interior on which the kids can marvel at some of the area's wildlife. There are picnic areas, a marina, as well as a snack bar and gift shop. The park is accessible by either boat or ferry.

The classic experience of dinner theater is alive and well in Clearwater thanks to the Early Bird Dinner Theatre. Enjoy live professional theater along with a delicious buffet dinner that is highlighted by a friendly atmosphere and excellent service. Enjoy comedy, light drama and a fun combination of both when the seasoned actors take the stage at the Early Bird Dinner Theatre!

Sometimes, changing your scenery with something a little unexpected is good for romance. That's definitely the case when you plan a special date to visit the Octagon Arts Center together. This venue is all about highlighting the work of the many talented artists who are both locally and regionally based. Various shows are scheduled throughout the year that spotlight either a particular theme or the work of an up and coming artist. You and your date know that your relationship is kind of like a work of art in and of itself, so spending some romantic time at the Octagon Art Center is literally a picture perfect date!

Cooperation instead of competition is the mission of Studio 1212. Established in October of 1970, this is the oldest artist cooperative in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. The membership is limited to thirty members who not only create and teach their craft in this cooperative, but they frequently hold openings and display their art for the public to view and purchase. Various classes are offered as well, as the members of the co-op also value the opportunity to give back by teaching their craft to aspiring artists.
